NEW DEPTHS | {MATERNITY LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER , THE WOODLANDS TX}

This couple has a spot all their own in my heart!  They were a part of my very first session years ago, and I am thrilled to watch as they move from young happy couple to young loving family.  To say they are excited about the addition of their baby boy would be a gross understatement!  Amy and Austin, the love you share radiates from you both and will reach new depths when Mr. B fills your arms and hearts!   I had the best time with you and just love you both to pieces.  Thank you for taking a chance on me all those years ago, and trusting me now to capture such a powerful time of change, transition, and new beginnings.  I am looking forward to meeting your sweet little man.

LEAVES IN THE WIND | {FAMILY LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, KATY TX}

Swapping stories as the session ended, we watched her guys (dad included) scatter like leaves in the wind, Momma H and I continued our trek to the car.  Emerging from the woods we were met by a full on dance party pulsating from the van!  And that right there?  Is what I love the most about The H Family.  They are fun, energetic, and passionate. About each other.  About life.  Sharing the family passion, the boys are accomplished swimmers, athletes, and actors.  Most impressively, not only are they handsome, but are phenomenally well rounded young men with hearts of gold.  I imagine moulding three boys into amazing young men is no easy feat, but this mom and dad duo has made it look effortless.

H Family, you hold a special place in my heart.  I loved every second of our time together and thank you for spending your evening with me!

SEASONED PROFESSIONAL | {CHILD LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, HOUSTON TX}

There's nothing better than spending a cool fall morning with someone that shares in my love for the camera!  Equipped with gorgeous brown eyes, eye lashes that make grown women jealous, a smile that melts hearts, and an awareness of my every move, the handsome Mr. J connected with me like he was a seasoned professional!  Not too often do I come across a 1 year old that loves to ham it up as much as this little guy.  Stopping. Smiling. Turning on the charm.  Mr. J, I enjoyed every second of our time together.  You are SO good at peek-a-boo!!

Meet the C Family...this super sweet and laid back bunch was so much fun!  Mr. N and I met up last year for the very first time.  I was ecstatic when mom called to document Mr. N turning 4, and the addition of their newest family member... Miss E! Check out her yummy cheeks and Mr. N's big boy swagger!  He is so handsome. C family it was a pleasure, as always, thanks for being troopers and your southern hospitality! Enjoy.

WILDFLOWER... | {CHILD LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, KATY TX}

My sweet baby girl turned four at the end of August.

The words to the song "wildflower" encompass the beauty and carefree spirit of who she is right now... {sweet, spunky, beautifully and perfectly crafted by The Maker's hands}

"I’m just a girl that needs

A little sun, a little rain

An open field to play…

Hey, I’m a wild flower, growin’ in the sunshine

Soakin’ up the way of life I was raised in

Runnin’ barefoot bloomin’ in a summer shower

Ponytail dancin’, I can’t help it, I ‘m a wildflower"

We celebrated her milestone with friends and family in Rainbow Fairy Princess style. Here are just a few of my favorites from her session.

ALL BOY & JOY | {BABY AND FAMILY LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, KATY TX}

Greeting me with smiles and giggles as he was taken out of the car, Mr. M was exuberant! Because really, what could be better than a morning at the park with mom & dad, and his best friend Maggie? With an affection for cars and balls, a contagious belly laugh, unbelievable blue eyes, and a captivating joyful spirit, Mr. M is all boy! Being that this handsome little guy spent his first few weeks in the NICU, mom didn't have the newborn images she had always wanted. So getting together with this sweet family to document their love and affection for each other, and the milestone of their little man turning one was of the utmost importance. I just love the way the entire session turned out! W family I loved every second with you guys. Thank you for being so laid back and fun! You have such a special little guy on your hands. Give him a squeeze for me!

MONSTER TRUCKS & MOM | {CHILD LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER, HOUSTON TX}

Sweltering. Unrelenting. HEAT. We have all experienced some sort of ridiculous heat this summer and because so, I have to start this post simply by saying THANK YOU to my amazing friends for sticking (no pun intended) with me during our time together. Sure, I am use to walking away from a session needing a change of clothes and a shower, but my clients...not so much. However, we were all ready to jump in a near by lake. fully. clothed.
This sweet family has been friends of ours for years. We have gone to parties together while dating, participated in each others weddings, and shared in the joy and excitement of adding members to our families. I am honored to have had the chance to share in yet another milestone...Mr. C being 2!
Mr. C is all boy. He loves monster trucks, his mom, throwing rocks at frogs, playing in the water, wrestling with dad, and all things Spider-Man! He has got a killer personality and a belly laugh like no other. What a gift you are Mr. C! I loved every second of playing with you!
